BETTER than n Basket for Luncheon,
From the Boston Herald

From the Boston Herald
A prominent physician says that children's
school luncheons should not be placed In the old
fashioned lunch basket, or tin box, as bad odors
always cling 10 much-used receptacle. What
he recommends Is fresh, clean napkin, wrapped
bles, and pasteboard box TO hold It all. The box
can then be4 thrown away when the meal Is done
The good sense OF this will strike every person
given to wholesome living, and It win also delight

get up cheap little box especially adapted 70 the
conveyance OF school luncheonS Parents no
doubt, would be glad to buy these boxes as they
buy matches, by the quantity, should they super.

Matt. II LA.

Matt. u / IA.
At that time Jesus went on the Sabbath day
through the corn; and his disciples Were q hun
gered, and began 10 pluck the of corn, and
to eat.
But when the Phalisses saw it, they said
unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which
is not lawful to do upon the Sabbath day.
But he said unto them. Have ye not read
what David did, when he was q hungered, and
they that were with him;
How he en- tered into the house of God, and
did eat the show bread. which was not lawful
for him to eat, neih her for Them which were
with him, but only for the priests?
Or have ye not read in the law, how that on
the Sabbath days the priests in the the temple
profane the Sabbath, ana ale bameless?
But say unto you. That in this place is one
greater than the temple.
But if We had known what this meaneth, 1
will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would
not have condemned the guiltless.
For the Son of man is Lord even of the Sab
bath day.
8 And when he was departed thence, he went
into their syDagogue;
10 And, behold, there was man which had
his hand withered. And they asked him, say
ing, Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath days?
that they might accuse him.
IL And he said unto them, What man shall
there be amoug you, that shall have one sheep,
and if it fail into pit ON the Sabbath day, will
he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
II How much then is man better than a
sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the
Sabbath days.
l3 Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth
thine hand. And he stretched it forth, and it
was restored whole, like as the other.
IA Then the Pharisees went out, and held q
council against MIN, how they mighht destroy

habit of cautiousness is not, as gen.

naturally generous and confding

GOLDEN TEXT.
1t is lawful to do well on the sabbath days
Matt. L. H.

This during the period of Christ's iabors
in GaIlilee, perhaps soon after the second pass
over. The word "corn" as here used is inter
preted to mean wheat, or any kind of grain.
They were passing through, perhaps on their
way from the synagogue at morning prayers.
1t was a very natural act, to pull off a few heads
of The grain and rub it in their hands Tor the
purpose of thresbing out the kernels. This The
Pharisees- great sticklers for the law, OF course
saw, and objected to because of its being la
Dor, this pulling being method o. reaping, and
this rubbing a method OF threshing. Christ
teaches them the beautiful lesson of the differ
ence between the necessary and the frivolous,
willing ears. 1t was sugges ed that he heal a
lame man. This was for the purpose of accus-
ing him of breaking the Sabbath. But the lame
was healed. The difference in the aim of me
great teacher and the Phariss es, in that day,
was that the former sought to savelife and heal
stIoy life, even the life of the Son of God.
The great fault with the world to-day is that
when the Divine Spiiit comes along, teaching
lessons of Righteousness, the world seeks to crit
icise, confuse, aud destroy, instead of accepting
and attempting to get all the good possible
therefrom. There are some things necessary TO
be done ON the Saba b day, but tins fact does
not give license 10 keep up the ordinary busi-
ness pursuits. Neither does it sanction the
calling of things necessary that are palpably
unnecessary.
